GridView onmouseout problem

[kieran]

Hi,

I was using the datagrid and am now starting to use the gridview in
asp.net 2.0. I used to use the first below sub for when i would
mouseover a row - this highlighted the row but did not affect the
original colour of the datagrid on mouseout. My datagrid uses
alternating row colours. However when i try and amend the code for the
gridview - when i do a onmouseout all rows now go to a white backgound
and the alternating colours in the rows disappear.

The first sub shows the code that works in my datagrid and the second
sub shows the code that i have amended for my gridview so far but will
not work.

Can anyone see what i am doing wrong.

Thanks.
